Liverpool have not had their best start in the Premier League, and although they straightened their path a little in the Champions League with their first victory in the competition, there have been more doubts than certainties in Jürgen Klopp's team. What is certain is that Luis Fernando Díaz Marulanda has been one of the fundamental pieces in the 'Reds'. Accompanied by his team's early results, 'Lucho's' outlook didn't start off the way he wanted, earning a few criticisms, but then he traded them for praise.

He had a great game against Ajax Amsterdam in Liverpool's Champions League win. Late on, they scored the second and final goal thanks to Joel Matip. Luis Fernando Diaz has quickly won the affection of the Reds fans, his teammates and Jürgen Klopp for his performances. He is incisive on the left flank, and revolutionises the attack every time he is on the pitch.

His adaptation was not complicated, and it shows with the confidence he has earned from Jürgen Klopp, who has been using him week after week. Luis Díaz will say goodbye to September without playing in the last stretch of the Premier League because of two games postponed due to the death and funeral of Queen Elizabeth II.

Without Sadio Mané, nothing has changed. Luis Díaz has been a key part of the Liverpool set-up and it's not just the English side who enjoy the football offered by the native of La Guajira, Colombia. His former club, FC Porto, also get a lot of enjoyment from Jürgen Klopp's line-ups when they see Diaz starting. This was confirmed by Portuguese newspaper O Jogo, which maintains that in the transfer they signed a clause that depended on how many games 'Lucho' played.

Porto will receive millions if Díaz achieves these statistics

"The Colombian completed the first block of 25 games playing at least 45 minutes, and with this, the blue and whites of Porto will get another million euros with the operation, which has already originated a payment of 45 million on the English side." However, the Portuguese side will continue to wait and see, as the newspaper stated that there are other issues that could increase the extra money.
